    Course Timetable

    The full timetable of all activities for this course can be accessed from .

    This course is delivered in semi-intensive mode over 6 days seminars. It entails daily 3-hours face-to-face lectures from 9am to 12pm and 3,5-hours working sessions from 1pm-4:30pm. 

    Due to Sylvie's area of speciality, this Tri 2, 2018 offering of this course will have a Luxury focus;

    The course is dedicated to give participants awareness and understanding of strategic perspectives and unique challenges faced by organizations within the wine industry in regards to luxury and premium brand positioning.

    Luxury and premium brands have experienced remarkable growth and success in the last thirty years. The strong aspiration power and dream factors of luxury brands constitute nowadays an example of what many mass market brands would like to develop to differentiate and create strong customer loyalty.

    At the same time, globalization and development of new emerging countries have also been very beneficial to luxury brands. All markets have demonstrated strong interest for luxury goods and services. In many countries local managers would like to understand the foundations of luxury brand management in order to possibly develop local premium or high end/luxury brands.

    For all these reasons, this class will concentrate on the foundations of premium/luxury brand management and the art of luxury branding. It will analyse and explain how companies can create and grow luxury brands and then leverage on brand equity to create value and significant return on investment for their shareholders through proper brand management.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.
